By bicycle from Aalsmeer to Amstelveen

Ready for a relaxing ride? Start your cycling journey in Aalsmeer, famous for its massive flower auction—where more blooms change hands than anywhere else in the world! Roll out northwards and you’ll find yourself gliding along mostly smooth, paved cycle paths. The ride is a gentle one: at just over 11 km, you’ll barely feel any climbs and there’s hardly a bump in the road.

Much of the route is on dedicated cycleways, so you can relax and enjoy the classic Dutch scenery—think open fields, greenhouses, and maybe even the odd canal. With most of the path paved (and a little splash of paving stones for character), it’s perfect for riders of any experience level.

You’ll finish in Amstelveen, a leafy suburb known for its parks and its modern art museum, the Cobra Museum. If you want to keep exploring, you’re just a stone’s throw from the southern edge of Amsterdam. So whether you’re commuting or cruising, this route is an easy, scenic way to connect two charming towns!
